“How Do I Start With AI?”: Answering the Multi-Billion Dollar Question

About a year ago, I was convinced that the key to succeeding with Artificial Intelligence (AI) was to take a platform approach. In other words, the synergies that accrue from appropriately bringing together the range of technologies that are making AI a reality for enterprises was, I believed, the way to go. I still firmly believe that.

In fact, having personally met over 200 executives (business and technology) since then, from around the world, who seek to find relief and new value from AI, I am convinced that opting for best of breed capabilities from a variety of vendors is not necessarily going to work out in practice. For one, despite claims of using only open standards in building these offerings, deploying the offerings from a variety of vendors in an integrated manner is a challenge. Further, the business and operational challenges that naturally occur in such situations with multiple providers are deterrents too.
